    2014 MLB thread with friends

    I will track my plays here again this season, but I also want to invite my old baseball buddies from SBR -- tat, ExHoosier, italianbandit, 2DaBank, etc. -- who don't have regular threads to chime in with their plays when/if possible. Will only bolster the value of the thread.

    We had some incredibly sharp baseball minds chiming in a year ago with their picks in my thread. Hope we see it again in '14.

    LOL -- I wouldn't count on that, but it sure would be nice.

    I just entered a bunch of fantasy leagues on top of this, capping the NBA, capping CBB, etc. It's been an exhausting weekend, not to mention all of the family obligations that had me away from everything all of yesterday.

    GL coin I look forward to following some of your plays. I haven't played a full mlb season before, how profitable is it? I assume you primarily bet dogs like you do in hoops, right?

    One of my favorite threads in the site. I love baseball.

    Holding off on gambling until Vegas in two weeks....its hard.

    GL. I look forward to bitching about the Dbags and Heath Bell this year. That seems to be a constant and blown saves.

    Pribably going to ride my Cardinals again. They have made me some coin last few years. Clutch team for the most part.

    What's up Big D. I got kind of a slow start to the capping aspect of MLB this spring, so I'm a little rusty right now. Don't want to go too crazy early on without being "well read" first.

    Have to really balance it out and pick your spots, and you have to do your research. A lot more than just starting pitching, power hitting and surface stats. Bullpen knowledge is very important.

    Leaning Reds, O's, Braves at the moment. Possibly (gulp) Cubs.

    I'm just going. To enjoy the first two weeks then get after it.

    Like you said, bullpens are key. Knowing when a bullpen is taxed can help tendously regardless of who the starter is.

    Do you have any sleeper teams this year ala the Pirates last year?

    There is always a team the books are slow on adjusting too.

    Not sure if the Marlins are there yet, but they should be a lot better. If their hitting is even average, there may be some tremendous value in backing them at times before the books catch up.

    I think the Rays win the AL East if Balfour holds up.

    Royals may push the Tigers, but I don't like their starting pitching after Shields.

    O's and Pads are going to give teams some problems.

    I don't want to lay juice but Chris Sale looks like the best bet on the board. Watched the Twins a lot in spring and they can't hit worth a shit. Maybe under but not sure if I trust Nolasco.
